The series finale was due to air on Monday 18th May 2020, although this will now change due to the shutdown of production on the 13th of March due to COVID-19. Showrunner Andrew Dabb said ahead of the broadcast of Destiny's Child on 23rd March, that the episode would be that last broadcast at present as the visual effects and audio weren't finished on episodes 14-18 before the shutdown. There were two episodes left to film. Dabb also said that "We, the CW, and Warner Bros fully intend to return and finish the series. It's not a matter of "if", it's a matter of "when"."

On 14 May, 2020 CW President Mark Pedowitz announced that Supernatural would return to Thursday nights to air its final seven episodes in the fall. Pedowitz said: "Jared and Jensen will go back to finish the last two and then Jared will go off to work on Walker. We hope they will start shooting [Supernatural] late summer early fall. If not, we’ll be flexible in our schedule. We all want to end the 15 years the right way. It's important that these two episodes will be done the way they hope to do them. If not, we'll wait it out."

From beginning to end

Where it all started

After the Entertainment Weekly article and photoshoot came out, Eric Kripke posted this photo and said "In honor of 15 years, check it out! The notecard where I wrote the very first embryonic notion that became #SPN. (First stab at title was "True Stories.") It's crossed out because I wrote it. Thanks #SPNFamily, family don't end with blood, or when shows end.

End of the final script

On 6th March, Andrew Dabb posted a screenshot of the final page of the final script. It read "The End." In response, creator Eric Kripke tweeted "I wrote “To Be Continued” at the end of the every #SPN ep as a good luck ritual. They couldn’t cancel us, we were continuing! #SPNFamily: know what’s still continuing? You. Your love for each other & the good you put in the world. If I could ask one thing, it’s that: keep it up."

Clever fans decoded the sentence, which is cut off above "BLACKOUT". It reads - "When the final chord of the song plays, we "

COVID-19

The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has been felt around the world, and has affected the SPNFamily. On 13th March it was announced that Supernatural, along with all other Warner Brothers TV series, had shut down production until further notice. Supernatural had just finished filming day one of the 19th and second last episode and had just over two weeks left of filming on its final season.

Extra entertainment

There's lots of homemade entertainment available for fans. Check out social media for posts from Jensen, Misha and Jared and their families, as well as these offerings:

Jared's new series Walker was given a straight to series order by The CW. The pilot was to have started shooting soon after Supernatural wrapped, but that has been delayed. Check out our entry on Walker for all the casting news.

With the length of lockdowns and travel restrictions uncertain, any dates for conventions in 2020 should probably be considered tentative at present. Check out links to all 2020 Conventions and check their status at our Convention Calendar.
